Argentina will know that the French team don't like to receive a lot of knocks. Argentina are really aggressive and they won't let Kylian Mbappe face the game. They will try and block him because they know he is the main man. It is going to be difficult for them to handle Tchouameni, Griezmann and even Dembele.

We don't talk about Dembele I think he has been helping Jules Kounde a lot. He has been working really hard.

Karim Benzema has been back in training with Real Madrid. Will he make a return to Qatar and be an option for Didier Deschamps?

Olivier Giroud has stepped up to replace him at the World Cup and has done a pretty great job in doing so, scoring four goals.

Another World Cup winner's medal for Benzema would be the cherry on top after an incredible year which saw him win La Liga, the Champions League and Ballon d'Or.

But do France need him?

Hit the thumbs - Up for yes, and down for no.

Karim Benzema could be available to make a sensational return for the World Cup final on Sunday.

The 34-year-old Real Madrid striker was ruled out at the beginning of the tournament after injuring his thigh during training in Qatar.

However, manager Didier Deschamps opted not to replace Benzema in the squad and reports suggest that the Ballon d'Or winner could be fit again for a return.

Asked whether the striker could feature against Argentina, Deschamps preferred not to answer.

Lionel Messi. Kylian Mbappe.

Two of the best footballers in the world - but could another star be joining them on the pitch on Sunday?

I look at this Argentina side and I see one very similar to the side that won the World Cup in 1986.

They are very aggressive, they have a lot of strong, powerful players, not hugely gifted talent all over the field but they have a really good centre forward in Jorge Valdano in 1986 and now Julian Alvarez and then they give the ball to a genius, Maradona and now Messi.

It is a similar approach, will it be good enough?

How to deal with Lionel Messi will be one of the key questions for France, just like how to deal with Kylian Mbappe will be one of the key questions for Argentina.

It has to be a collective effort. You can't have someone man-marking Messi and following him everywhere on the pitch because Messi will eat you alive if you do that.

I guess the idea will be to ensure he gets as little of the ball as possible but, again, that is very difficult.

Maybe France are slightly better in terms of their structure. It still feels like when Argentina play it is like 'give the ball to Messi and we will see what happens'. But Julian Alvarez is in form, so is Alexis Mac Allister, so they also have other top players.

The only worrying thing for all us football purists who want to see Lionel Messi lift the trophy is that this French team find a way to win.

My head says France will get over the line even though my heart doesn't want them to.

If you love football - Messi has given so many of us so much joy. It's like a romantic film, you always want it to end well.
